I really don't understand the point of this remark.

Yes, it's clear you wanted to know if an extension in Bash does
something that strictly can't be done with its standard cousin.

In the computational sense, it almost certainly does not enable the
calculation of output texts that are not out of reach to <<.

It does express things differently such that some things that can
be done /in a certain way/ with one thing cannot be with the other
and vice versa.

Not only that, but it doesn't even look like anything has been posited
in disagreeing terms or that anyone (visible to me) thinks there is a
disagreement.
